Gu Zheng’s identity had indeed exceeded Qiao Xi’s expectations. She had just arrived in Li City not long ago. Although she knew that the people in Li Cheng could not be provoked, she never thought that the man she chanced upon would have such an identity, which resulted in a big blunder.
After a short period of silence, Qiao Xi composed herself and pressed on her phone a few times.
The matter regarding Qiao Rou’s miscarriage would not end just because she said a few harsh words. The Qiao family would still take action in the future, and…
Qiao Xi smirked. She did not believe that Qiao Rou was really pregnant.
The children of the Gu family were worth much more than the shares of Qiao Corporation. Qiao Rou, who was such a calculative woman, definitely understood this.
Qiao Xi was busy with her own matters, and Gu Zheng was not an idle person either. The two of them silently sat in the back seat and dealt with their own matters.
The chauffeur quietly observed through the rearview mirror and realized that even though they were strangers, they surprisingly made quite a good match…
The chauffeur shook his head in amusement. He was actually thinking that this bold woman was compatible with his young master? He must be crazy.
The journey was silent as the car steadily drove into the underground garage. Qiao Xi yawned, picked up her bag, and slowly followed behind Gu Zheng after getting down from the car.
She was thinking about how she could taste Gu Zheng’s fingertip again…
Ding.
The fingerprint lock opened, but Gu Zheng did not enter. He raised his chin at Qiao Xi.
Qiao Xi, “???”
Gu Zheng said, “Record your fingerprint.”
“Oh.”
After entering, Gu Zheng brought Qiao Xi along to briefly tour around the villa. Qiao Xi’s mind was elsewhere the entire time, and it was unknown what she was thinking.
Gu Zheng laughed in anger.
Sweeping a glance at the obviously absent-minded Qiao Xi, Gu Zheng turned around and brought her up to the third floor.
Compared to the first and second floors, the third floor was more spacious and bright. Other than the gym, there was only one room on the third floor.
Just then, Gu Zheng suddenly asked, “How about you stay in this room?”
Qiao Xi roughly swept her gaze over it. The room was very large, and there was also a balcony. The black and gray decorations did not seem depressing. It just gave others an imposing feeling.
However…
There was a man’s jacket on the chair in the room, a man’s watch on the bedside table, and a finance book on the table not far away.
“This is your room? I’m staying with you?”
“Why? You’re not willing? Don’t forget that we’ve already registered our marriage. How can newlyweds sleep in separate rooms?”
Qiao Xi was stunned for a second.
Immediately after, she suddenly grabbed Gu Zheng’s hand and brought it to her mouth.
Gu Zheng was shocked by her actions and reflexively wanted to withdraw his hand. Qiao Xi suddenly looked up and said, “Why are you hiding? Isn’t it normal for newlyweds to kiss?”
This whole time, she had been thinking about how she could taste Gu Zheng’s fingers again. She forgot that they had already registered their marriage, which meant she could touch him openly!
Before Gu Zheng could answer, Qiao Xi had already stretched out the tip of her tongue to lick his fingertip.
Naturally, one’s tongue was different from one’s lips. The touch of a pair of lips was warm and soft, while the touch of a tongue was moist.
The instant Qiao Xi’s tongue touched his fingertip, Gu Zheng’s entire body went numb!
At that instant, it was as if an electric current had burst out from the point of contact between the tip of her tongue and his fingertip. It went all the way to the top of his head and spread all over his body!
Qiao Xi was now sure that Gu Zheng’s fingertip was really sweet!
She held Gu Zheng’s hand and kept caressing it. She did not have much of an expression on her face, but her clear eyes were shockingly bright. One look and one could tell that she was in a very good mood.
She was indeed in a good mood, but Gu Zheng was in a terrible mood.
He had only suggested Qiao Xi stay in the same room with him to tease her, yet in the end, his plan backfired on him.
Gu Zheng pulled his hand back with a little force and told her to do as she pleased before rushing downstairs.
Qiao Xi leaned against the railing and watched him enter the study on the second floor with dissatisfied eyes before retracting her gaze and entering the master bedroom.
…
It was unknown whether it was because he was busy with work or he wanted to avoid Qiao Xi, Gu Zheng stayed in the study the entire afternoon.
At five in the evening, Qiao Xi rubbed her growling stomach and walked downstairs.
At the same time, the villa’s door opened from the outside with a beep. A middle-aged woman with a graceful figure wearing a black suit walked in. She was about three meters away from Qiao Xi.
She scrutinized Qiao Xi from head to toe. Then, she raised her chin and said disdainfully, “Although I don’t know how you got into this villa, I’ll give you three seconds to get out. Don’t make me repeat myself.”
How many times had she been threatened by now?
Qiao Xi silently wondered if she looked as though she was easy to bully…
When the middle-aged woman appeared, the maids in the villa hesitated to go forward. When the middle-aged woman noticed them, she glared at them and ordered sternly, “What are you standing there for?! You don’t even care if a strange woman has barged into the villa? Why is Young Master even paying you, then?!”
